Thank you for this 🤗 .. we’ll need to see how often this crops up in our brave new world of Google+ meeting its slow final demise over the next 10 months.

edit: looks like this hit the rule of 3️⃣ so we should probably make this the new default for that button, no plugin required, default on all Discourse instances .. can you take it @Johani?
